Exceed expectations. Faster. With less effort.

SAP Fiori design principles have been brought and adopted into various enterprise systems, such as SAP S/4HANA, SAP C/4HANA, and more. While SAP Fiori is available for SAP S/4HANA Cloud by default, to deliver SAP Fiori for SAP S/4HANA on premise, follow the SAP Activate methodology.

Activate your selected SAP Fiori apps in either a sandbox (or development) landscape.

Use your sandbox to perform fit-gap analysis and decide where you want to adjust the solution to your requirements. To start, first download the software and set up your SAP Fiori infrastructure.

Download the software

Visit the SAP Fiori apps refererence librence library to find the required system landscape components for individual SAP Fiori apps or to generate aggregated implementation information. To install the software components downloaded from the SAP Maintenance Planner, we recommend you use the SAP Software Update Manager (SUM). Delivered as part of SAP’s Software Logistics Toolset, the SUM is a multi-purpose tool that supports processes for performing upgrades, installing enhancement packages, applying Support Package Stacks, or updating single components on SAP NetWeaver.

We recommend using a system landscape plan from the SAP Maintenance Planner* as the basis for downloading the required front-end and back-end software components. This plan should be based on your current SAP landscape and the SAP Fiori apps you have selected in the reference library.

The SAP Maintenance Planner lets you download the required software components as part of a maintenance transaction, which also serves to document the changes to your SAP system landscape.

Alternatively, you can download the required files directly from the SAP Software Download centre and deploy them manually. This allows you to deploy only single product versions.

Perform fit-gap analysis and delta design

Enable high value features to benefit from the full experience of SAP Fiori for SAP S/4HANA, such as Enterprise Search, Notifications, Personalisation and User Assistance.

Discover and design your app

Build is a collaborative design tool that allows users in your SAP project teams to quickly create interactive prototypes that can be shared effortlessly with your users. The SAP Fiori Reference Apps are sample applications that help developers and designers with their development projects. Users can see real working code and live examples covering all layers end-to-end and examples of how SAP Fiori patterns and controls are being implemented in typical use cases. The SAP Fiori Reference Apps demonstrate the development and UX Design guidelines and best practices applicable to the SAP Fiori development lifecycle. This covers the entire end-to-end process from design and technology to coding principles, from OData modelling to implementation, as well as selected product standards such as performance, and extensibility.

Extend your apps

SAP Fiori apps are designed with an extensibility concept that provides high flexibility:

Custom development for SAP Fiori apps

SAP Fiori apps are based on SAPUI5, a JavaScript-based UI library from SAP which combines new qualities like openness, flexibility and high speed of innovation with established SAP strengths like enterprise readiness and standard support. Its core offers a solid foundation that simplifies development by managing many aspects of modern web app development behind the scenes. For the UI display itself, a variety of diverse UI controls specially tailored to SAP Fiori are included, ranging from basic elements to complex UX patterns, all ready to be used to style your SAP Fiori app.

Use SAP Web IDE to create custom SAP Fiori apps based on SAPUI5. This browser-based toolkit is available on SAP Cloud Platform and provides an integrated development environment. With drag-and-drop tools, wizards, and templates, you can create starter apps with only a few clicks – then use robust code editors to develop full apps easily and quickly. And if your SAP Fiori app has to support multiple languages, SAP Cloud Platform also offers the SAP Translation Hub service to add quick, accurate, and easy translation workflow capabilities.

Go through the SAPUI5 tutorials. They will help you understand how to develop and extend SAP Fiori apps.
Check out the explored app to discover the many new features of SAPUI5 controls, as well as countless code examples.
Learn how to develop, deploy, and extend SAP Fiori apps in SAP Web IDE documentation.
